Kevin J. Drab
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified EMDR Therapist, Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counsel
The experiences of pain and illness , while involving physical causes, are generally shaped by learning and misperceptions of what one is undergoing. I use therapeutic methods which help the client to change their beliefs and reactions in order to promote a more realistic and accepting response which includes a sense of mastery of the experiences thereby significantly lessening the pain and discomfort of their problems.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Kimberly L. Rehak
Counselor/Therapist, Ed.D., M.A., BCBA-D, CAC, BC-TMH, CCTP, THP, Practitioner/ Specialist.
From the time I was a small child, I was no stranger to being around people living in chronic pain and illness. I became very accustomed to caring for and assisting others experiencing physical pain. My maternal grandmother was diagnosed with cancer just before I was born. I went on to work in health care settings, including nursing and rehabilitative homes and centers, and continued to provide services to an aging population. I also have personal experience caring for a deceased spouse who suffered with cancer. This personal experience was far more educational than any advanced degree or training program with which I participated, in terms of understanding so many important factors involved in the treatment and care of those living with chronic pain or illness, as well as their families. Since that time (2008), I have worked with a number of clients individually, and their families, diagnosed with cancer and other terminal illnesses. Coupled with my early-on personal and professional learning experiences, this is a specialty area of mine that comes very naturally. Psychological pain and "disease" is also an area for which I am no stranger, in terms of experiencing the effects of secondary traumatization (vicarious traumatization). Often times those individuals who are not receiving the help and support they need may pass these conditions onto others, just like with physical communicable "dis-eases", causing others to experience these "states". It is so important that those surrounding these individuals are also provided the help, care, and support that is needed so it is not displaced onto others, who may fall victim to their outbursts or difficulties.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you’ve been in survival mode long enough, your body eventually starts to speak the truth your brain has been trying to ignore.
If you're a high-functioning woman living with chronic illness—Lyme disease, autoimmune issues, migraines, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, IBS, or symptoms no doctor can fully explain—you may have spent years blaming yourself. Pushing through. Powering on. Telling yourself you're just stressed, just tired, just too sensitive. But what if your illness isn’t just physical? What if your body is responding to something deeper—like the emotional trauma of a toxic or narcissistic relationship?
I work with women who are successful, smart, and chronically unwell—often without fully understanding that the constant stress, emotional abuse, gaslighting, or high-conflict co-parenting dynamic they’ve endured may be a major root cause of their health issues. These relationships dysregulate your nervous system, flood your body with cortisol, erode your immune system, and create the perfect storm for illness to take hold.
You may be:
Co-parenting with a narcissist and constantly walking on eggshells
Living with post-separation abuse, burnout, and deep emotional exhaustion
Feeling dismissed by medical providers who don’t ask about your relationships
Blaming your body while ignoring the decades of survival it’s endured
Overachieving while secretly unraveling
Wondering if your body is trying to get your attention
If you’ve found yourself searching:
Why am I always sick and exhausted?
How trauma affects chronic illness
Can narcissistic abuse cause physical illness?
Stress-related autoimmune disease in women
Burnout, inflammation, and emotional abuse
Why chronic illness flares after divorce
...you are not imagining it.
Your body is not broken. It’s been fighting to keep you alive through years of emotional chaos.
I specialize in working with women who are managing chronic illness and the emotional aftermath of toxic relationships. Whether you’re still in the relationship, co-parenting with someone who triggers you daily, or finally trying to heal in peace—this work matters. You deserve care that looks at the whole you: physical, emotional, relational, and psychological.
You’re not weak for being sick. You’re strong for surviving what made you sick in the first place.
